1、Designation:E166495a(Reapproved 2012)An American National StandardStandard Classification forServiceability of an Office Facility for Layout and BuildingFactors1,2This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1664;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal
2、adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This classification covers pairs of scales for classifyingan aspect of the
3、serviceability of an office facility,that is,thecapability of an office facility to meet certain possible require-ments for layout and building factors.1.2 Within that aspect of serviceability,each pair of scales,shown in Figs.1-3,are for classifying one topic of serviceabil-ity.Each paragraph in an
4、 Occupant Requirement Scale(seeFigs.1-3)summarizes one level of serviceability on that topic,which occupants might require.The matching entry in theFacility Rating Scale(see Figs.1-3)is a translation of therequirement into a description of certain features of a facilitywhich,taken in combination,ind
5、icate that the facility is likelyto meet that level of required serviceability.1.3 The entries in the Facility Rating Scale(see Figs.1-3)are indicative and not comprehensive.They are for quickscanning to estimate approximately,quickly,and economically,how well an office facility is likely to meet th
6、e needs of one oranother type of occupant group over time.The entries are notfor measuring,knowing,or evaluating how an office facility isperforming.1.4 This classification can be used to estimate the level ofserviceability of an existing facility.It can also be used toestimate the serviceability of
7、 a facility that has been plannedbut not yet built,such as one for which single-line drawingsand outline specifications have been prepared.1.5 This classification indicates what would cause a facilityto be rated at a certain level of serviceability but does not statehow to conduct a serviceability r
8、ating nor how to assign aserviceability score.That information is found in PracticeE1334.The scales in this classification are complimentary toand compatible with Practice E1334.Each requires the other.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3E631 Terminology of Building ConstructionsE1334 Practice
